Studio A Adds: Colleen Green, Evan the Death & more

Oh man is it nice out today. My trusty iPhone says 52, which is still not quite the most ideal temperature but is a massive improvement. The question remains though: where will all this snow go now that the weather is warm? Will Uconn be submerged in water that was once snow? Who knows, man. Strange days indeed.

Anyway, got some cool stuff for y’all this week in Studio A. We have some 80s/90s sounding indie rock (a la The Smiths, Mazzy Star, Dino Jr.) courtesy of Evans The Death. Speaking of the 90s, we also have the new Swervedriver album, which is honestly a pretty impressive album from the recently reunited English indie rock/shoegaze group. Normally “comeback” albums are pretty wack, but this one certainly stands as an exception.

Eerie, haunting female vox. Instrumentation is bare but well-done. Percussion is really cool. Repetitive grooves but never drags on. Builds/branches off repitition in creative ways. Vox are all over the place and really cool. RIYL: Priests, PJ Harvey. Try 4 and 6.

Instrumental black metal/post-black metal. Like Deafheaven w/o the vocals and a harder Explosions In The Sky. HUGE sound. Awesome pummeling drums and guitars. For post-rock/metal fans, this is a must. Play 6. RIYL: Deafheaven, EITS, Godspeed. FCC clean.
